Two-pass hardening of the #690 demo so no epistemic state is proposer-mintable:
Pass 1 (sealed corpus, from the reconciliation pass):
- evidence items are references only (evidence_id + content_sha256) resolved
against a committed content-addressed corpus (evidence_corpus.json)
- support derived from committed subject/predicate match; independence from
distinct provenance_root values; proposer support/independence labels are
rejected by the closed schema
- evidence-strength taxonomy (substrate-capability vs interface-contract) in
PUBLIC-DEMO-ROADMAP / DEMO-PACKAGING-CHECKLIST; position-paper refinements
Pass 2 (entailment-decided inference, closes a live false-status hazard):
- the merged inferred leg required only that premise IDs resolve — a claim
with no support citing one unrelated record as a premise was assigned
'inferred' (empirically confirmed). inferred is now decided by
generate.proof_chain.entail (sound+complete ROBDD) over resolved corpus
premises, cross-checked against the independent truth-table oracle
(evals.deductive_logic.oracle, no shared code); proof keys + oracle verdict
in the trace; disagreement => defensive refusal; refutation => contradicted
- committed adversarial scenario unrelated-premise-still-undetermined proves
the attack now lands on undetermined
- corpus seal (corpus_sha256) pinned into every evaluated trace; scope
refusals no longer consult the corpus; corpus cache hands out copies;
claim subject/predicate constrained to atom-compatible snake_case
- .gitignore: private packet dir, agent worktrees, tooling artifacts
Validation: 30 demo tests; 96 across all three demo suites; 7/7 scenarios
double-run byte-identical; 61 architectural invariants green.

The ratified capability, through the existing mutation owner only:
- teaching/proof_promotion.py — pure decider. Fresh-reads every premise AND
the claim from the store (claim_entry_index; forms never proposer-supplied),
strict status compares (no parse-defaulting), reading_certified must be the
boolean True, engine certification via the pinned deductive engine,
proposer_payload accepted and provably never read (del before use; poisoned-
mapping test), certificate digest emitted for D4 trace-hash folding. Zero
mutation; zero vault.store calls; zero status writes (proven with the
INV-21/INV-29 detectors themselves).
- vault/store.py::apply_certified_promotion — the single transition site.
Independently re-verifies: byte-for-byte replay under DEDUCTIVE_ENGINE_PIN,
promotion_positive, live claim form/reading/status cross-checks, live
premise form/reading/status cross-checks (staleness refuses). Fabricated or
tampered certificates flip nothing; authority is live store state plus
recomputation, never the artifact.
- generate/proof_chain/engine_pin.py — DEDUCTIVE_ENGINE_PIN mirrors the
deductive_logic_v1 lane SHA; sync pinned by AST test against
scripts/verify_lane_shas.py.
- Consistency fix found in lookback: both promotion sites now stamp
epistemic_state alongside epistemic_status (the ADR-0148 site left the
stored state tag stale; recall recomputed it, but the stored key lied).
Obligations: all six strict-xfail markers retired and live (O1/O2
strengthened to prove the transition through the vault owner); the
module-existence pin deleted per its own docstring; the two remaining
honesty pins kept. INV-21 allowlist unchanged; INV-29 allowlist unchanged
({vault/store.py}); INV-29's 29c visibility floor raised 2 -> 3 to cover the
new site.
No runtime turn path calls promotion; the deterministic demo is PR D.
Validation: new suite 49 passed; obligations 8 passed (0 xfail remaining);
invariants 66 passed; certificate 27 passed; 0148 6 passed; epistemic 20
passed; smoke files green; lane SHAs verified.
Architect-directed ratification: D1 (pure decider / vault-owned mutation),
D2 (reading stays curator-certified in the first cut), D3 (exact predicate,
including REFUTED -> no transition), D4 (certificate fields + trace-hash
folding), and INV-29 as the permanent transition-site boundary, all ACCEPTED.
Two fail-closed realizations recorded under D3: the claim form is fresh-read
from the claim's own stored entry (never proposer-supplied), and zero-premise
tautology certificates refuse rather than promote in v1.
Docs-only: no runtime behavior changes in this commit. P3 implementation
(teaching/proof_promotion.py + VaultStore.apply_certified_promotion) follows
in the same PR as separate commits.
Pure evidence substrate for proof-carrying coherence promotion. No
promotion, no vault import, no status transition, no teaching-path
change; ADR-0218 stays Proposed.
- generate/proof_chain/certificate.py: frozen PromotionCertificate
(version/claim_form/premise ids+forms+statuses/entailment_trace/
engine_pin/decision/reason, canonical_json with sort_keys+compact
separators); build_certificate runs evaluate_entailment_with_trace
over entry_id-sorted premises; verify_certificate rebuilds from the
embedded forms and accepts iff byte-identical — tampered forms/claim/
trace/decision/reason/ordering/version all fail replay, structural
breakage fails closed as malformed_certificate.
- promotion_positive is necessary-not-sufficient: entailed over a
non-empty all-coherent recorded premise set; REFUTED/UNKNOWN/REFUSED
verify as themselves but are never positive; zero-premise tautology
certificates fail-closed non-positive in v1.
- engine_pin is recorded provenance; pin tampering is caught only via
caller-supplied expected_engine_pin (P3 must pass the lane SHA) —
limit pinned by dedicated tests.
- entail.py: docstring-only fix removing the incorrect ADR-0206
attribution (numbering collision); now cites ADR-0218. Zero behavior
change. generate_claims.py:74 still carries the label (serving-frozen
surface, flagged for follow-up).
- No xfail markers retire: every PR-A obligation binds to the P3
promoter, which must not exist before ratification. The certificate-
shaped halves of O1/O7 are proven for real in
tests/test_proof_chain_certificate.py (27 tests). ADR phasing bullet
and obligations docstring record the reconciliation.
Validation: certificate 27 passed; obligations 3 passed + 6 xfailed;
architectural invariants 61 passed (INV-21/INV-29 green, allowlists
unchanged); entail/builder/rules 61 passed; smoke files 95 passed.
PR A of the stack specified by docs/issues/proof-carrying-coherence-promotion.md.
No runtime change; no promotion behavior; ADR-0218 is Proposed, not ratified.
- ADR-0218 (Proposed): rulings the issue Section 9 demands — extend the
existing mutation owner (policy decides in teaching/proof_promotion.py at
P3, only vault/store.py mutates), reading stays curator-certified in the
first cut, exact fail-closed admissibility predicate, certificate folds
into trace_hash. Records two substrate corrections: proof_chain Phase 2
(2.1-2.4) is already implemented, and ADR-0148 already automates an
energy-arm promotion.
- INV-29 (passing): epistemic-status transition sites are allowlisted.
ADR-0148's in-place promotion proved INV-21's AST scan cannot see
status transitions (they are not store() calls) — the boundary the
issue calls highest-risk did not actually cover the riskiest shape.
Allowlist pinned to {vault/store.py} BEFORE any promoter exists;
detector mutation-proven non-vacuous (29b/29c).
- Obligations O1-O5, O7 as strict xfail (executable spec; ImportError today;
strict=True forces the P3 PR to retire markers and pass for real) + three
honesty pins that flip red if promotion is wired without review.
Validation (worktree off main@187b008b, python -m pytest):
- tests/test_proof_carrying_promotion_obligations.py: 3 passed, 6 xfailed
- tests/test_architectural_invariants.py: 60 passed (56 prior + 4 INV-29)
- smoke file set: 94 passed
- proof_chain/entail/binding-graph/ADR-0148 set: 84 passed
- epistemic/teaching set: 40 passed
- scripts/verify_lane_shas.py: 8/9 pinned lanes match incl. deductive_logic_v1;
public_demo missed on the known env wall-clock budget flake (47.6s > 30s),
pre-existing and unrelated (diff is docs+tests only).
§3.4 said promotion "requires a curator-mediated coherence judgment." That
over-states a necessity. ADR-0021 §3 only requires promotion be a function of
coherence with the reviewed field. For claims *deductively entailed* by
already-COHERENT facts, the entailment proof IS that coherence judgment and can
be machine-certified by the sound deductive_logic_v1 engine — the logical arm of
the "structural coherence metric" ADR-0021's v2 gap already names.
- position_paper.md §3.4: split "own asserted output" (no standing — kept) from
"deductively entailed from COHERENT facts" (proof = coherence judgment);
relocate review to the *reading*, not the deduction; flag the proof-carrying
path as specified-but-unwired with a link to the new issue.
- teaching/epistemic.py: the EpistemicStatus docstring claimed transitions are
"computed from coherence" — they are not; review_correction carries status as
a curator-supplied input. Docstring now states this honestly.
- docs/issues/proof-carrying-coherence-promotion.md: thorough spec for the
unbuilt capability (scope, the reading hazard, INV-21 impact, trust boundary,
falsification tests, phased plan, proposed ADR-0218).
No runtime behavior change. Green: test_epistemic_invariants,
test_epistemic_phase3_state_tagging, TestINV21OneMutationPath (15 passed).
Tool Authority Demo (#688) was still tagged 'draft PR / in review' but it
merged at c55f7dfb. Hybrid Verification Demo (#687) lacked the claims-authority
framing and the agreement-is-not-safety finding. Reposition both as merged
evidence, name the next public evidence target, and align epistemic-state vocab.
- #687 = authority over claims; #688 = authority over proposed tool actions.
- Removed stale 'In progress / draft PR / in review' status on #688.
- Added explicit next-target ordering: Epistemic Truth-State -> Embodied
Authority Simulation -> SaaS/On-Prem Boundary.
- No named-company, outreach, or production/robotics overclaims introduced.
- Explicit System 1/2 framing in thesis and §2 (Claude proposes; CORE decides)
- Named Bounded Transition Guarantee (v2.1) callout box in §2
- Conditioned false-positive claim on correctly specified Anchor (§1)
- Named Type-Safe Local Closure security model in Lens layer and §5 Signal 1
- §7 renamed 'The Ask — Hybrid Mode Wedge' with MCP-shaped experiment framing
- §5 stats (716/716, 0 wrong) explicitly tied to BTG, not tuning/sampling
- §6 Honest Limits: explicit Hybrid vs Native Mode distinction added
- Harmful variant table row: 'licensed scope is a ratified human policy decision'
ADR-0184 S4b — the replay/provenance equivalence boundary, the
precondition for any semantic-primary path. After #685 the in-repo
legacy path delegates to the semantic boundary, so old-vs-new is
vacuous; the durable reference is a pinned canonical trace artifact
(evals/gsm8k_math/equivalence/v1/, 937 problems) whose authority is
the #684/#685 cross-tree differentials (documented provenance chain).
- state/provenance.py: replay_is_faithful — the replay bridge's law as
a checkable structural property (no verify/pool import; covered by
the #685 authority scan).
- equivalence/trace.py: canonical traces (worlds, candidates, order,
multiplicity, classifications, resolutions) + authority_violations
re-deriving the pool commit law from trace content.
- scripts/verify_semantic_equivalence.py: check / --update gate
mirroring verify_lane_shas.py.
- tests/test_adr_0184_s4b_replay_equivalence.py: full-corpus live-vs-
pinned equality, corpus-wide authority + faithfulness, and 17
single-mutation non-vacuity proofs.
Pure additions; verify.py/pool.py untouched; no serving, CLAIMS,
metrics, or lane pins moved.
ADR-0184 §7 S4: add generate/derivation/state/source.py — the single
boundary through which semantic-ledger worlds become pool candidates —
and swap pool.py's accumulation source to semantic_state_candidates().
accumulate.py keeps its public surfaces as thin compatibility wrappers
(ADR-0184 §10). Byte-identical over the 937-problem differential;
verify.py / pool.py remain the sole commit authority (structural
no-authority-import scan over state/, non-vacuous).
Also: docs/analysis design note for the S3–S5 boundary stack, and a
drive-by ruff F541 fix in r1_reconstruction.py (rf->r, zero behavior).
Stop-and-document outcome for issue #680's final runtime wiring. The
serving turn has no lawful in-turn ContemplationResult or provider: the
sole QUESTION_NEEDED producer (generate.contemplation.contemplate) is an
off-serving growth organ that runtime is forbidden to call, and no
plumbing carries its artifact into the turn. Wiring is deferred to a
lawful acquisition slice; chat/runtime.py is left untouched.
Rewrites the Q1-D ASK bus delivery scoping document into the durable decision record for decisions implemented in #668. No code or runtime behavior changes.
Accepts the ASK + VERIFIED serving-integration scoping briefs.
No served-surface code is introduced. ASK is identified as the next gated serving slice; VERIFIED remains blocked on a gold-free second reader and explicit eval-gold serving ban.
Resolve the one open S2-1 design decision in the doc before it leaves draft:
VERIFIED must NOT reuse ReachLevel.APPROXIMATE or the [approximate] prefix.
- §0: add the claim-vs-reach caution — VERIFIED is a disclosed-surface
*license / verification claim*, not a point further out on the speculation
scale; it is more LICENSED than strict/gold, not more speculative. Record the
principled three-axis decomposition (Disposition × DisclosureClaim × ReachLevel)
and allow v1 to collapse to a distinct ReachLevel.VERIFIED iff it carries its
own admissible-set, rationale, and [verified] prefix.
- §4: replace the open question with the settled S2-1 decision (Shay's wording):
VERIFIED gets a distinct disclosed-surface mode with its own deterministic
[verified] prefix; APPROXIMATE is for bounded estimates, VERIFIED for
independently-confirmed answers under the canonical-comparison contract.
- §1 SQ-5, §9 S2-1, §11 non-claims: propagate — only the enum shape
(distinct ReachLevel.VERIFIED vs a separate DisclosureClaim axis) is left to S2-A.
Still scoping only — NO CODE. Stays DRAFT pending Shay's design-lock.
Scope the frontier after the frozen R1–R4 comprehension ladder: the
served-surface disclosure machine and its first two tenants. Scoping
only — NO CODE.
- session doc §1.5 — the pre-question limitation pass / intake gate:
classify the limitation KIND before choosing a disposition (asking is
one of several). Key phrase: question-asking is the intake mechanism
for resolvable missing state; limitation assessment is the gate that
decides whether intake is appropriate.
- Doc 1 (primary) — the Epistemic Disclosure Bus:
EpistemicState + LimitationAssessment → ServedDisposition, two axes
(DISPOSITION × the existing ReachLevel). VERIFIED is the ONLY v1
tenant; ASK/PROPOSE/REPORT/SCOPE reserved. Grounded in the built-but-
inert ADR-0206 seam (govern_response/shape_surface; _canonically_verified
returns None at verify.py:188). Honours the 2026-06-06 dead-path
verdict: v1's VERIFIED producer is a comprehension-organ answer (R2
first, R4 second) with independence in the READING not the solving,
validate-first holdout (INV-25) BEFORE any widening, behind a new
verified_serving_enabled=False, GSM8K seal untouched.
- Doc 2 (companion) — Q1 question articulation: maps the four ASK
dispositions onto the shipped failure_family registry; the
missing_total_count / missing_weighted_total reclassification (decide
with tests, never silently re-key); the grounded-rendering wrong=0
invariant; the structured-residue-on-refusal gap; Q2 re-enters the
gate (augment + rerun, never mutate). Second bus tenant.
HOLD for review.
Records the design reached in discussion: the first real skill of contemplation
is typed, deterministic, failure-family-driven question generation. A question is
a typed request for missing state, not a conversational habit. Proposes
core/epistemic_questions/ organ (EpistemicQuestion, MissingSlot, AnswerBinding),
the QUESTION_NEEDED terminal distinct from PROPOSAL_EMITTED, and the Q1/Q2 PR
ladder. Traces the connection to the ServabilityBlade clarify mode and the
minimal-sufficient-question discipline.
Closes the CMB ladder with a docs-only lockfile. No behavior change.
- New docs/analysis/combined-rate-capability-ledger-2026-06-08.md: the frozen
R4 v1 claim, supported solved grid, solver/reader boundaries, the three
proposal-allowed deferrals, router/contemplation integration, the
domain-precedence adjudication (named, with proof cases cmb-11/15/12·13·14),
a prominent non-claims list, and the verification lanes. Every cited number
re-confirmed against the lanes: gold 19/19 (6/5/8), solver 6/0/5, reader
11/0/8 -> answers 6/0/13; the 7 R4 test files 93 passed.
- Updates comprehension-organ-capability-ledger-2026-06-08.md to fold R4 in as a
fourth organ: organ block, 4-organ router + cmb_* namespacing, a named
domain-precedence section, R4 lane rows, and a reframed deferred/next that
points the next frontier at served-surface epistemology (not more comprehension).
Honest accounting: 1 pre-existing red (test_findings_reset_between_turns) is red
on clean origin/main and imports nothing from R4 — unrelated.
Off-serving unchanged (sealed); no generate.derivation / core.reliability_gate.
The mandatory lookback before CMB-d (3+ PRs on one surface; next-phase boundary). A 5-dimension
read-only fan-out audit over the 10-item checklist found the CMB-a/b/c substrate composes cleanly:
25 solid / 4 drift / 8 gap / 1 reader hazard. Doc:
docs/analysis/cmb-lookback-review-2026-06-08.md.
Fixes the one real hazard (H3): a query attributing the answer to a SINGLE agent ('how many words
does Alice type' with a distractor second rate) wrongly claimed the substantive
combine_mode_ambiguous — a hygiene over-claim that would corrupt the shared router in CMB-d. The
combined-query gate now excludes single-agent 'does <Agent>' attribution (_SINGLE_AGENT_QUERY) and
steps aside as not_combined_rate_shaped; the genuinely-combined forms ('do they' / 'are produced' /
'does it') still yield combine_mode_ambiguous. Pinned by gold cmb-16 + a reader test.
The review also resolves the CMB-d failure-family classification (input_shape:
not_combined_rate_shaped; must_remain_refused incl. rate_unit_mismatch — DECISIVELY, the reader has
no dimension representation so it cannot tell convertible from incompatible units; proposal_allowed:
combine_mode_ambiguous, missing_second_rate) and enumerates the live CMB-d registry preconditions
(not_combined_rate_shaped mapping, rate_unit_mismatch/non_integer_solution string collisions,
non_positive_net_rate family, Organ/ALL_REASONS extension). Provenance false-alarm (stale local main
checkout) noted + verified against origin/main.
gold 19/19 (6/5/8); reader 11/0/0 + 8 refused-correct; solver 6/0 + 5/0; 0 hygiene breaches; 123
tests; serving + R1/R2/R3 unchanged.
The 2026-06-08 practice-attempts/servability-blade session note under-referenced the substrate
that already ships the serving half of its design. Doctrine ('wrong=0 = no false presentation of
epistemic status') stands; the build plan must reuse existing organs, not fork parallel ones.
Adds a binding Amendment + reframes sequencing:
- ServabilityDecision/ServabilityBlade => advance ADR-0206 core/response_governance/ (ReachPolicy /
govern_response / shape_surface, ReachLevel STRICT<APPROXIMATE<EXTRAPOLATE<CREATIVE, gated STRICT,
already disclosing [approximate]) — NOT a new object.
- the epistemic_state Literal => reuse core.epistemic_state.EpistemicState (ratified taxonomy), not
a smaller renamed enum.
- ProblemAttemptSession => extend core/comprehension_attempt/, don't fork.
- first activation = produce reserved VERIFIED via canonical comparison (scoping doc already exists),
consume through govern_response/shape_surface, prove on the yardstick, one state at a time.
Preserves the research trail (amendment, not rewrite). Docs only.
Records the wrong=0 refinement reached in discussion: wrong=0 is not a binary
answer/refuse gate but 'no false presentation of epistemic status'. Practice/
contemplation may explore typed, isolated candidate guesses; served output needs
a servability blade with more modes than verified|refuse. Proposes
ProblemAttemptSession (PRA) and ServabilityDecision (SRV), sequenced PRA -> REL ->
SRV, and traces the idea to the R1/R2/R3/CMB reader trajectory. Session doc, not
an ADR yet.
First rung of the combined-rate ladder, off-serving (imports no generate.derivation /
core.reliability_gate). Claims exactly: the combined-rate setup ruler is defined and
gold-valid. No reader/solver/wiring yet — no capability claim.
- generate/combined_rate_comprehension/: local RateUnit (decoupled from R3), CombinedRateProblem
(two-explicit-rates + per-query-slot guard; effective_rate = rate_a +/- rate_b; non-positive net
left to the solver, not the model).
- evals/combined_rate_oracle/: span-free signature (sum commutative / difference ordered) + a
NON-VACUOUS validator. 17 gold fixtures: 6 solved (full combine_mode x query grid), 4
solver_refuses, 7 reader_refuses (the complete refusal taxonomy + the 2x2 domain-entry grid).
Adversarial 5-lens verification returned fix_first; the validator now cross-checks every solved
gold and solver_refuses reason against the canonical arithmetic (_canonical_outcome) so a
mislabelled / arithmetically-impossible fixture is rejected (meaningful-fail per CLAUDE.md), with
dedicated tests. Added eff<0 and eff=0/time coverage fixtures; removed a dead determinism guard.
gold 17/17 valid; 25 oracle tests; R1/R2/R3 + router-hygiene + serving all unchanged.
Doc: docs/analysis/cmb-a-combined-rate-ruler-2026-06-08.md
Consolidation/true-up after #646-#648. Records the off-serving comprehension
system as one ledger: R1 relational arithmetic, R2 finite-integer constraints,
R3 explicit single-rate + exact minute/hour conversion, the router/contemplation/
proposal loop, the proposal-review reporter, idle_tick read-only visibility, and
the standing router-organ-hygiene invariant. Pins the whole-system lane state
(answer_wrong==0 everywhere) and the off-serving import-disjointness guarantee.
Also fixes a documentation-integrity defect the R2 batch introduced: the R2 ADR
took number 0211, which collided with ADR-0211 (Conformal Falsification Bench,
2026-06-06 — earlier, test-pinned, depended on by ADR-0216). The conformal ADR
keeps 0211; the R2 ADR is renumbered to the next free number 0217. Ratified
decision content unchanged; only the identifier and references move.
Option A (text-faithful): RateProblem gains time_unit (the duration's ORIGINAL unit; time stays int; defaults to the rate denominator). The SOLVER converts via convert_time -> exact Fraction -> int-or-refuse(non_integer); Fraction never leaves the solver, no floats. The reader accepts a convertible (minute<->hour) duration mismatch (keeps original time_unit); a non-convertible one still refuses rate_unit_mismatch. Signature includes time_unit ('30 minutes' != '30 hours').
Gold: r3-09 flips reader_refuses -> SOLVED (60 mph for 30 min = 30 mile, exact 1/2 hour; distractor 1800 rejected); new r3-13 non-convertible (3 gallons) stays rate_unit_mismatch. R3 gold 13/13; reader 9/0/0 -> answers 7/0/6 (setup_correct 8->9). Failure-family: rate_unit_mismatch now non-convertible-only -> still unsupported_rate_duration proposal surface; router-hygiene invariant stays green; R1 7/0/3, R2 10/0/0 unchanged. 119-test smoke green incl. invariants. Off-serving, no float path.
No organ may claim a substantive boundary on text outside its domain — on every OTHER organ's gold, a refusal must map to the non-substantive input_shape family (not-my-domain), never a substantive boundary/growth surface. This is what lets one organ suppress another's legitimate proposal via boundary-first (caught at N6, R3e, R3.1). MUST-PASS gate before any new organ joins route_setup. Currently green for R1/R2/R3. + standing-rule doc.
classify_r3 normalizes the rate reader into a ComprehensionAttempt; route_setup now tries R1/R2/R3 (same exactly-one-setup_correct rule); the pass manager solves+verifies a routed r3_rate setup (solve_rate + reused answer-choice verifier); unsupported_temporal_state dropped from the unsupported-family set so temporal_state -> REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY. Organ gains r3_rate.
Terminal matrix (verified): 6 solved->SOLVED_VERIFIED; rate_unit_mismatch+combined_rates->PROPOSAL_EMITTED(unsupported_rate_duration); non_integer/missing_time/temporal->REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY; exactly 2 proposals (the rate-like gaps only).
REGRESSION CAUGHT+FIXED: R3's reader returned missing_rate (a substantive boundary) on non-rate R2 text, blocking r2-011's legitimate missing_total_count proposal via boundary-first. Fix: missing_rate only when a duration is present; else not_rate_shaped -> input_shape (not-my-domain) — same discipline as the N6 category_pair_not_found fix. r2-011 proposes again; R1/R2 unaffected. R1 7/0/3, 15-case 15/0/0, R2 10/0/0, R3 8/0/0 unchanged; off-serving; 121-test smoke green incl. invariants + idle contract suites.
docs/analysis/r3-rate-inventory-ledger: R3 v1 state (reader 8/0/0 + 4 refused -> answers 6/0/6; gold 12/12), per-fixture table, the compound-unit substrate, covered families + R3.2/R3.3 deferrals.
core/comprehension_attempt/failure_family.py: makes unsupported_rate_duration REACHABLE as a growth surface (proposal_allowed) mapping rate_unit_mismatch + combined_rates — both emitted ONLY after a rate clause is recognized, so always rate-like (anti-over-propose discipline, same as the N6 fix). missing_rate/time/quantity -> rate_underdetermined boundary; temporal_state -> unsupported_temporal_state boundary (clock detector can fire on non-rate text, NOT a safe growth surface); query_target_unrecognized/no_query -> input_shape. Owner gains 'r3'. 107-test smoke green incl. partition + contemplation + invariants; R1 7/0/3 + R2 10/0/3 unchanged; off-serving.
Pins the boundary: existing idle_tick remains the only idle_tick; proposal review is read-only; NOT L10 always-on heartbeat; does not advance learning; only surfaces review obligations. Documents how IT-b works (gate, sub-pass, failure-isolation, no-did_work) and that R3 (rates/time/state) is next.
core/config.py: review_pending_proposals: bool = False (opt-in, mirrors consolidate_determinations). chat/runtime.py: IdleTickResult gains an additive optional proposal_review field; idle_tick runs a READ-ONLY sub-pass (after consolidation, gated) that surfaces core.proposal_review.idle_summary(). It does NOT set did_work / checkpoint / mutate / ratify / mount / modify readers; a reporter exception is CAPTURED (safe=False, errors=('proposal_review_failed:<type>',)), never propagated.
docs/runtime_contracts.md documents the sub-pass + field (required for runtime-surface changes). Contract tests: default-off -> proposal_review None (existing shape preserved); enabled -> summary surfaced; exception captured not propagated; read-only review never checkpoints; other passes unperturbed. 91-test smoke green incl. architectural invariants + both existing idle contract suites. Existing idle_tick remains the only idle_tick; NOT L10 always-on.
Documents the boundary: observes + reports + verifies; never advances teaching / ratifies / mounts / modifies readers / affects serving. ChatRuntime.idle_tick remains the only idle_tick (different stream, different verb). A future PR may call this reporter from idle_tick as a read-only sub-pass. L10-adjacent, NOT L10; the always-on heartbeat remains separate/unbuilt and is not claimed here.
generate/contemplation/{findings,pass_manager}.py: a single bounded pass — route (N3) -> classify+enrich (N4) -> terminal -> maybe emit proposal-only (N5). No loops/daemon/L10. Seven terminals: SOLVED_VERIFIED / REFUSED_KNOWN_BOUNDARY / REFUSED_UNSUPPORTED_FAMILY / CONTRADICTION_DETECTED / PROPOSAL_EMITTED / AMBIGUOUS_ORGAN / NO_PROGRESS. R2 solved+verified end-to-end; R1 routed setup is SOLVED_VERIFIED (numeric answer stays the eval lane in v0).
Hazard found+fixed: N6 exposed that category_pair_not_found fires on ANY non-R2 text, so mapping it to a growth surface made gibberish falsely PROPOSAL_EMITTED. Reclassified it to input_shape and made missing_category_pair reserved — only the PRECISE missing_total_count/missing_weighted_total remain reachable growth surfaces. Classification is boundary-first (input_shape non-blocking), so a problem one organ recognizes as a substantive boundary never proposes against the other's broad refusal.
Acceptance proven: known correct refusal -> no proposal; unsupported gap -> proposal-only artifact (exactly the 2 missing_* gaps over the gold); answer-key contradiction -> CONTRADICTION_DETECTED; organ conflict -> AMBIGUOUS_ORGAN. 188 tests green incl. architectural invariants; R1 7/0/3 + R2 reader 10/0/0 unchanged; off-serving.
Post-merge baseline for the contemplation batch: R1 7/0/3, R2 reader 10/0/0, gold 13/13, serving unchanged. Enumerates the full typed refusal surface across both organs (R1 reader/admissibility, R2 reader/solver/answer-choice) and a first-pass cross-organ failure-family taxonomy with must_remain_refused / proposal_allowed / owner — the table N4 will make executable. Repeats the load-bearing distinction: correct refusal != missing capability.
Records the final R2 v1 state: reader setup_correct 10 / setup_wrong 0 + 3 correct reader-refusals; 7 solved answers + 3 solver-refused + 3 reader-refused; gold 13/13. Per-fixture table, the four wrong=0 gates, the reader-vs-solver division of labor (equal coefficients are a solver refusal, not a reader one), covered families, and R3 deferrals. R1 7/0/3 and 15-case 15/0/0 unchanged.
evals/constraint_oracle: span-free canonical setup signature (unknowns/facts/constraints/query; terms merged+sorted, lhs constant folded into rhs), a 13-fixture gold (7 solved / 3 solver_refuses / 3 reader_refuses) with a closed expect+refusal taxonomy, and a gold-validation runner. No reader yet — this proves the ruler is coherent (13/13 valid), not capability.
ADR-0211 ratifies the R2 finite-integer two-category constraint compiler: the IR, the canonical signature, the closed taxonomy, the four wrong=0 gates (setup oracle / reader refusal / exact solver / answer-choice contradiction flag), off-serving disjointness, and the C1-C9 ladder. Cross-refs ADR-0207/0175/0083/0055-0057; reuses the R1 setup_oracle pattern. Off-serving (no generate.derivation / reliability_gate). 13 oracle tests incl. per-branch meaningful-fail.
r1-07 now reads setup-correct and answers 6 — 'Nia has 9 more beads than Omar. Nia has 15. -> Omar = 6'. The reader binds the unknown base's unit FROM the relation when its subject is a known fact and its referent is the otherwise-ungrounded query target, so the equation is admissible; the answer oracle reverse-solves it (PR-7a). Bounded: single base == query target (no chains), known subject value, base not otherwise grounded, <=1 inverse (multiple_inverse_bases else), never over times/divide.
R1 setup 6/0/4 -> 7/0/3; R1 answers -> 7 correct / 0 wrong; 15-case 15/0/0; setup_wrong stays 0. Off-serving. Refreshes the R1 ledger to 7/0/3 (R1 closed; the 3 remaining refusals are wrong=0 boundaries).
Baseline decision artifact at main@5ada1392 (post-#616). Records the R1
4/0/6 state per-fixture: the 4 admitted semantic families and the invariant
protecting each, and a classification of the 6 refusals — 2 pure phrasing
gaps (r1-03/r1-04 aggregate-query), 1 real reverse-solve capability (r1-07),
and 3 correct wrong=0 boundaries that must stay refused (r1-08/09/10).
Source-verified against the merged reader (refusal codes + line refs) and
the live lanes (setup 4/0/6, answers 4/0/6 setup_wrong/gold_error 0,
15-case 15/0/0). Docs-only; no code, no serving lane, no SHA-lane content.
